Do you know what causes you to feel like this? This condition will not improve of its own accord, but instead you will grow gradually worse, and eventually end in nervous debility or neurasthenia. If you have ever taken treatment and failed to get cured, perhaps it is because you never took treatment from me, for I cure when others fail.

"I have heard peo- i pie say 'Poor old White Sox, they are on their way down the hill of defeat at last, just because we lost a few games to Boston or Washington, said Fielder Jones, of the worlds' champions.

"If the fans would stop to think a minute they would give the world's champions the credit they deserve. Look back and see where we held the lead consecutively from May 2 to August 2 and at no time during that three months was our entire team in the game. Within the last week or so Is the first time this year that we have had our full championship team to play. Tannehill has been out of the game all jseason, and, while we filled the gap pretty well with Rohe and Quillln, Tannehill makes a much stronger support on that corner. No one has anything on him as a fielder and his throwing has always been one of his strong points.

Of course, he does not hit as well as Rohe, but one offsets the other, and Tannehill and Davis work like machinery on that 6ide of the diamond. "Then, again, my pitchers have been off several weeks. We were exceedingly lucky to keep so close to the top as we did .347 .343 .335 322 'Mis .302 .300 .217 .277 .289 .288 .286 .285 .285 .284 .284 .281 .280 .282 .279 .278 The clouds are always thickest just before dawn. It surely looked black for the Pirates the beginning of the week. Wagner and Bresnahan collided at the plate In the tenth inning of the first game and Wagner got a scratched knee.

Newark has never finished ahead of Jersey City In the Eastern league, but It looks as if that would not be true this year. Tha St. Iouis Browns have lost 2f camcs by trie run this season, and the Boston have dropped 18 by tliat mat gin. The Philadelphia management will repurchase the releases of Catcher Crist and Pitcher Moser from Trenton and Pitoher McQulllen from Providence. 21 Wagner was busy Thursday's idleness.

Fred Clarke made several great Tunning catches. Titus had a field day with his bat. making five hits. The defeat of Mike Lynch didn't cause any tears here. Ganzel and Mitchell, of the Reds, each made three hits.

There has ben no change in the bat- ting leader of the American League. Otis Clymer holds down the banner seat, but "with a slim margin. Clymer is "going some," but the wrong Way. Still no one expected him to keep lip his figures of several weeks ago. In several games lately it is noted that Clymer "whiffed," as they call a strike-out in the American.

It won't take many nets of this kind to ruin the fine average held by the former Pirate. Clymer has Only played MH games. He doesn't seem to be a regular on the Washington team. There roust be something significant behind tills affair. Otis is out of so many games by reason of injuries, particularly the latter.

Klmer Flick won't be denied his bingles. He keeps grabbing them in almost every game. He is declared to entertain an ambition of leading the band wagon for 1907. Flick feels sure that if he can hold up to the last, ditch he will earn these laurels, for Clymer is thought to be on the downward patch. Flick is so close that one more turn at bat by Clymer, without a safe smash, will put the Lebanon (Pa.) man to the had as far as theehief steersman is concerned.

Xiles, of Louis, and Ty Cobb punch away. They tlo not "owe Ban Johnson any hits." This is baseball parlance, and has been sprung for decades.

Wagner's batting average in the two games yesterday was Kane, of the Reds, made two hits and scored five runs.

Going some. The Cardinals got many men on bases, but could not get them around. The White Sox have refused to waive with Devlin on base, after a desperate run he pulled down Seymour's long fly, labled home run. As long as a ball player Is hitting the ball everything he does looks good. Since Stone began to wallop like a champion the critics in St.

Louis have discovered that he can throw to the plate. Americans, to Little Rock, held Shreve-port down to no hits and no runs in the first nine innings of a double header last week. In the three subsequent innings thre hits were made off him. In the second inning of the second game Frank Bowerman was hit on the head by a pitched ball, ad rendered unccn-scious. He was carried from the field, and later removed to a hospital.

It is feared he Is seriously hurt.

Sam Crawford is setting sail for the van. tie is well in the mystic circle now. Being a veteran, he knows how to keep up there systematically.

This is an art not possessed by every man. When the crafties get two hits a game, then their aim is to land a. walk, a sacrifice or a hit by pitched ball, for the balance of the times up. The men reason that jjf'two a game" is sufficient, besides they cannot make 'em every time. It's a treat to watch a wise old-timer trying to evade times at bat after he has picked out two eafeties on the first and second times up.

Nichols, cf the Athletics, and Parent, of Boston, are the other men in the 3ft0 list. By the bye. it is noted that the number of sweet hitters is dwindling In the American League. Just eight in the magic list now. A few weeks ago over a baker's dozen had the envied count.

Pickering and Spencer are falling. Napoleon Lajoie shows signs of advancing. His mark" is a trifle higher. The big fellow may be able to warble that beautiful ballad, "I Don't Know Where I am Gemg. But I am on My Way." Larry is said to feel keenly the fact that he isn't with the firing line.

He is using every effort to crawl into the boss band. Lajoie is now 11 points under the wire. Hal Chase is a close pal of the American League's all-around star. With the Caiifornian batting at such a gait surely be must be a valuable man to his nine. On defense.

Chase perhaps hasn't a peer. He digs the ball out of the dirt, from the air, scoops in fasts, slows, bunts, throws like a rifle shot. Now that he is batting a fast pace he is undoubtedly a high-priced baseball package. Chicago, August 24. Three members of the championship baseball team will enter in Garry Herrmann's field-day sports at Cincinnati on September 10 They are Ed Walsh.

Billy Sullivan and Pat This announcement was made today by Manager Jones, of the White Sox. Kd Walsh, the spitball twirler, will enter for the fungo hitting, and Manager Jones says he has no erjual in this line. Walsh has a strong swing when hitting out flies to the outfield. Jonea says he believes there are few men in either of the major leagues that can outfit Walsh in long-distance drives. Billy Sullivan will epter for the accurate-throwing prize.

Jones saya one could put an ordinary catcher's mit on a stick at second base and that Sullivan would hit- it four times out of five.

If Frank Schulte, right fielder of the Cub ball team, keeps up his present batting gait he is bound to give the other heavy sluggers of the league a big scare. The way he is going right now makes him look like a strong candidate for that gold medal offered for the batsman who leads the National League at the end of this season.

In the series lust closed with New York. New York, August 24 The Pirates are certainly being put through a hard test in this city. Three more games are on the tapis, and then they will invade Philadelphia for the last time this season. Three contests are scheduled for the Quaker City, and word has reached the Pirate camp that the Thillies hope to make a clean sweep. Sounds pretty nervy on the part of Manager Billy Murray and his cohorts to talk that way, but such is, nevertheless, the case, as they are still figuring on finishing third.

The New Yorkers are certainly on the warpath. They mean to take the next three games and give the Pirates an awful setback. John J. McGraw would sooner see all his best racing tips go aglimmering than allow Manager Clarke's team to finish ahead of the Giants In the race. According to the gossips, there will be a reorganization of the Giants next season.

McGraw is planning to supplant Dan McGann at first base. That rumor is persistent on aecount of John angling after first basemen. He has two recruits on his -list now and is said to be dickering for more. Schulte hammered out 13 base hits in 18 times at the bat. His percentage in these four games is the tremendous figure of .722.

The hustling Pittsburg Pirates brought dismay to the hearts of New York fans yesterday by thrashing the Giants in both games of a double-header, winning the first by the score of 4 to 2, in ten innings, and taking the second by the score of 1 to the contest being called at the close of the fifth Inning by agreement. In the first game Leever pitched for Pittsburg, and was unhittable until the eighth, when the Giants got one run, tallying another in the ninth and tying the score. The Pirates had scored one in the second and one in the fourth. Wiltse pitched seven innings for New York.

Ames twirled the ninth, and Mc-Ginnity the tenth. Wagner won the game for Pittsburg' when he opened with a double. This started the Pirates going, and before they had finished they had tallied twice, winning the game. The second game was a battle between Mike Lynch and Howard Camnitz, and the Pirate lad had the beet of it. not allowing the semblance of a hit, while preceded the New York games he had four hits in 13 times up, which gave him a marK or for those contests.

Bills is a riirht-hander and has had a good record in the Southern League, this being his first successful season in that company. coming to Memphis from Topeka, and Rabb has been very successful in developing the big right-hander into a tOD-notcher in one season.

of last year, which closed its season without a single defeat, although they in several instances pitted themselves against teams much heavier than themselves. This year will see in the team ever greater strength, and the outlook is very bright for a most successful season, as there are a large number of fans in the valley who will do all in their power to aid the players. At the organization meeting Thursday evening it was decided to begin practice at once, and training will begin Monday evening. Blue and white will be the colors of the team, with the Swastika "good Hick" emblem as a mascot. Coats were decided upon In place of the regular Jerseys.

FIRE AT POLO GROUNDS. New York. August 24 The grandstand of the famous Polo Grounds was threatened with destruction by fire last night. It is supposed that a lighted cigaret stump thrown among the rubbish -under the seats started the blaze. Harry Tuthill, the Giants trainer, and employes of the grounds got a stream of water playing before the engines arrived.

The fames were soon extinguished. The damage will amount to about Enthusiasm Runs High. Chicaro, August 24. The fans on the South Side are worked up to a pitch of enthusiasm that eauals that of last fall. The same baseball fever that caught Chicago last fall has not taken hold of the city yet, but every-day more and more people are taken down with the malady and it is more than likely that before the White Sox leave home again the whole city will be as much worked tip over the result of each game as thy were last fall when the White Sox were making their gallant fight to land that flag.

Pittsburg's chain of victories won on Friday remains unbroken for the season, and yesterday's double triumph fattened the record. The Pirates have now appeared upon the battlefield fourteen times on Friday, playing fifteen games without a defeat. The Giants have been the victims on five of these occasions. The last time the team was beaten on Friday was on September 28, 1806, when a double-header was played at Brooklyn." Pittsburg lost the first section 5 to 4 the pitchers being Leever and Scanlon. In the second game Camnitz who opposed "Mclntyre, held the Dodgers to three singles, while the Pirates made the one lone run that won the victory.

It was a seven-inning affair. DISEASES OF MEN WEST PENN LEAGUE. FRIDAT'S RESTJXTS "DeV" of Mansfield made four hits off Wilbur Goode. Champs were given Friday's bout by various errors. Servatlus is doing good work at first base for Youngstown.

Teungsttrwn can't complain of lack of quantity cf pitchers, anyhow. Too many small towns in between Is the cause of O. A P. distress. East of Akron was driven golley west by Umpire Drake yesterday.

About 20 per cent, of Sharon's frames have been dropped by one and two runs. Through atill in his 'teens, there is no question that Drake of Mansfield will bn found in a class A organization next year. Butler Scottdale OLD RELIABLE FOR MEN A quick. safe. poel-Uv cure for Kidney.
